[gst-devel] getting data format info

[Hendrik Schober]

Hi,

we are using (or is that abusing?) gstreamer in order to capture
video data from an USB camera. For this we have setup a v4lsrc
and a fake sink and grab the data in the handoff hook of the
latter. So far, so good. However, despite several hours of
tinkering we haven't found out how to determine what format
(width, height, encoding) the data comes in.
What do we need to do to get these values?

TIA,

Schobi
